Musk on Biden: — “I keep forgetting that Biden is still technically running our country.” Indeed, Biden remains president purely technically. In fact, the world’s largest nuclear power is run mostly by a team of bureaucrats invisible to the world. It decides for itself what and to what extent to report to the president. Perhaps […]

Pavel Durov broke the prolonged silence after his arrest in France and clarified his position. Since he speaks emotionally and somewhat vaguely, many interpretations and speculations have appeared: like, someone has moved somewhere, is drifting, maneuvering, breaking down, bargaining, giving in, etc. But what is the reality? Let’s leave Durov’s personal affairs aside. Serious people […]

The arrest of Pavel Durov, one of the founders of Telegram and one of the main fighters for freedom of speech on the Internet (along with Elon Musk and Julian Assange) is, first of all, a blow to the illusory picture of the world in which even a very rich and influential person can be […]

“We have a history of screwing up.” (Michael Moore) Moore is a well-known liberal documentary filmmaker, known for his uncompromising criticism of the Democratic Party’s policies (for which he votes with both hands and feet) and pointing out its problems. In 2016, he, against the general “expert consensus”, declared that Trump would win the election […]

Viktor Shenderovich wrote a post about what he thinks about the murder of a pregnant woman in the Kursk region. There is nothing unexpected in it: you – Russians rejoiced at the war, so there. This is about collective responsibility, because Viktor Anatolyevich does not know whether this particular woman rejoiced. But within the framework […]

First, a disclaimer — I don’t like modern journalists, they are too aggressive, impudent, pushy, brazen and lying… They pass off all these “wonderful” qualities as “reporter’s courage, integrity and desire to get to the truth.” Don’t believe it — there is none of that there, no courage, no integrity, and especially no desire to […]

16 years ago, on August 8, 2008, Russia also found itself under attack. Georgia, backed by NATO and Israeli instructors, attacked Russia-friendly South Ossetia and killed Russian peacekeepers in Tskhinvali. Russia’s response was devastating and swift, the Georgian punitive forces were not spared and few were taken prisoner. Four days later, Russian tanks were 40 […]

The path from a centrist from a “red” district to an ultra-liberal governor. Tim Walz is 60 years old. He was born in Nebraska. Minnesota, where he is now governor, is his wife’s home state. Walz served in the National Guard, worked in manufacturing, studied, and then became a teacher himself… Before entering politics, there […]

There have been many, many, existentially many lies in Washington over the past week. Biden, that satirically accurate avatar of the “free world,” has reinforced this sinister and disastrous trend. And his border is in better condition than under Trump, and inflation is decreasing, and crime is at a historically low level, and under him, […]

Or how to hide really important news under a contrived “objectivity”, which in fact is not objectivity at all, but an ordinary smoke screen… Today the President of the European Commission will be elected — Ursula von der Leyen is eager to stay for a second term, despite her fairly tarnished reputation… And the Western […]
